Spoke to a gentleman who was very helpful and informative, and I was able to get a vr slot for the next day. 2 elementary aged and 1 adult all had a blast!! It was our first time doing vr, and it felt very real, like you were in the game, although there was a learning curve. It's a week later, and my kids keep asking to do vr again. Highly recommend if you're in the Sunriver area! I recommend calling first to make an appointment.

As part of the big brother little brother program I took my 12-year-old little brother here for our weekly outing. I am not into digital games at all. But after a warm welcome from the owners daughter and 10 minutes of training I found myself transported into virtual worlds that felt amazingly real and dynamic. Our one hour went by quickly as we defended our area from robots or went sightseeing in the beautiful Arizona desert, of course, avoiding the annoying and unattractive zombies! All I can say to sum up is that it way exceeded my expectations for experiencing a virtual world, was much more fun than this non-gamer expected, and was a business that was a pleasure to deal with. Super friendly and helpful. You do need to call to arrange your session, but that was effortless. We'll be back. (Robot talk.) John

It's a pleasure just to be in the building. But you're there to see an event, right? Tower's music and lecture calendar is always packed with interesting events and the prices are reasonable. - Snacks and beer/wine are available. - Acoustics are good. - Seats are comfortable although they do lack cup holders. - People running the place are unfailingly courteous and personable. The Tower exemplifies the notion of 'Bend friendly.'

Restaurant review:…read more About as old-school as they get in these parts, the Bend Golf Club restaurant/lounge is open to the public. No membership required. Ambiance is true to the genre: open area with numerous cloth-covered four tops as well as a few larger tables. Naugahyde (I think) lounge chair seating. Golf playing on the several TVs scattered about. No loud music. It's definitely casual. There's a small bar seating maybe six. About those chairs - they're horrible. If you have even a slightly cranky back, you'll hate them. I certainly do. - Service is good, efficient. Not top tier but certainly nothing to grumble about. Your order is taken quickly, drinks arrive soon and the food not too much later. We've had to wait for our our server to notice we needed drink refills a couple of times. - I mentioned the bar, which despite my being a dedicated bar-rat I don't think I'd want to sit at. They have only several beers on draft, well below Bend standards. If you're looking for booze or wine, they have it. - The menu is old school American with a few outliers. Salmon fish & chips, for example, are pretty good (they also have the more standard cod F&C). Several salads - I tried the SW steak salad, which despite having a nice cut of beef was not remarkable. Ribs, burgers, wings, pasta, shrimp, pork chops, etc, are all available. They do have the Impossible Burger, if you're into that. - And they have specials. That SW steak salad was one, but there's also prime rib night (Saturday, I believe) and a four-course dinner on Thursday for $25. - Prices for the food are maybe a tad high but not outrageous by any means. Before you tip, check for added gratuity on your bill. Drink prices are in line with what you expect in Bend. Hours change with the season, I'm told (by a member). During winter, it's open Thursday - Sunday. Otherwise (i.e., when the golf course is operating) it's open every day except Monday. The website doesn't reflect that. Bottom line? It's OK and if you're a member, it's certainly a good option for you. As a destination? Not so much. Unless you like to watch golf while you drink & dine.

I wish I could give this place 3.5 stars because that's really what my rating is, but I'll give it…read morea slight bump up since 3 seems unfair for what is overall a really nice venue. There is a lot to like about this place! First, we had great interactions with the staff--everyone from security to merch vendors to bartenders. Getting in was a breeze, probably one of the fastest entries I've experienced. I was a little taken aback by the prices of food and beverage here, because I naively assumed it would be cheaper than Portland. Ended up being more expensive than some music venues we frequent here. This is not the venue's fault, but the majority of the people attending the show we went to love to stay seated. It was strange to be (literally) one of the only handful of people who stood through the set and actually danced/swayed to the music. It honestly put a bit of a damper on the show because the energy of the crowd was so...meh. I'm not sure if this a regional thing or not, but it's something to be aware of if you prefer hype crowds for shows. This venue has a great view of the river. In fact, you'll likely see people in kayaks and boats floating past during the show. It would be great to experience a show that way sometime. Overall, this would be a great venue to see a more laid back show!

Our daughter and I enjoyed Bailey Zimmerman, and we will be back two more times to enjoy other shows at the Amphitheater. The ONLY reason I do not give Hayden 5 stars was the shocking price of the beverages. $25 each for a can of red wine, (that was chilled ??). $25 for 14 Hands Hot to Trot. a 12 ounce can that is about 1/2 of a bottle that is about $12.00 total?? I did not see the price until the next morning. I have already stated to my wife and daughter that it will be water only for our next trip to Hayden. Yes, we will be back, we just won't spend needlessly.
